I have been thinking about continuing the sagas. Here are some real world responses I have used.
Please enjoy.

Sysadmin:
“No. The email program uses a Dynamic programming algorithm.”

“What’s that?”
SysAdmin:
“In this case […]

Ok, after being asked in a different thread what inspires me to write, I decided it’d be a cool thing to ask everyone - so what inspires you to write, create art, or make music?
I write because I must. At this point I’m quite addicted to the printed word, and any author will […]

So we’re picked up at the hotel at noon by the lead attorney on our case and taken to the firm’s office in New Orleans. We’re briefed on what’s to take place in the mediation the next day, returned to the hotel, and turned loose to explore and partake of the saturnalia that […]

It’s now 11:11pm on Thursday. I’ve been home for about 30 minutes now and got the car (and all the souveniers) unloaded - the drive took a bit longer than expected since we stopped for (yet another) celebratory dinner en route to the house.
I guess the way to tell this tale is from […]

When I dream I see you there with
flowers and ribbons in your hair.
Your eyes, they’re a mystic shade of green.
And when I sleep I feel you near me
your satisfaction nearly kills me
and I open my eyes to look and you’re not seen!
Chorus: I see your face everywhere I look on
every page and […]

In my mind there is a place I can retreat to.
There are no wars, only peaceful silence.
All who live there know me, and I am loved by everyone.
For in my mind, I rule, and I cannot be controlled.
But in my mind I’m also a prisoner, locked
in the enver ending battle of wits […]

A wonderful feeling is one in which your mind feels so up that you could hit your head on the stars. Your eyes feel like crying, yet your smile holds them back. your spirit soars on golden wings skyward. Your breathing is so rapid your lungs feel they’ll burst at any moment. […]

Every day a new work weighs deeply in my thoughts. It travels through my arm but my pen refuses to write it. Stupid pen! Every day I try a new one, but all refuse, just like the one from the previous day.
Every day a new work weighs heavy in my mind. It […]

“Can I?” “Should I?” “Is it right?”
Your shyness overcomes.
Hiding in a corner, you slowly die of fright
And all your courage runs
Rampant through your mind its telling
You to state
the idea you’re selling.
Then shyness overcomes.
A moment lost, the conversation moves
just the same
nothing new is learned because
your shyness overcame.

By the way, I’ve found a local published author (who is also the mechanic who fixed my water pump). He gave a few tips that helped him write his first 2 novels, one being to find the time of day I’m most creative and write during that time. So here I sit at […]
